An Arresting Glimpse

Fifteen more minutes
Of eternity frozen
In amber paper


A Story in Ink

With each pen stroke
A future is shaped.
Emotion or motion –
A story begins
In ink:
An image
Or a word.
Through art,
The heart
Is heard.


Spring

Spring into the light Cast off your shell and breathe free: Brighten up the world. HAIKU

Spring into the light
Cast off your shell and breathe free:
Brighten up the world.


Constrained or Free

Constrained, sunk by weights
Or as free as Icarus:
A fragile balance


A Chorus of Contradictions

They ask you to show that 1 + 1 = 3,
Using theorems to prove it
And explaining seriously,
And they wonder why the world
Can’t live in harmony?


A Jagged Mirror

Asphalt and concrete
Scattered with long jagged bolts –
Mirrored in gray skies


You’re a Different Person Now

You’re a different person now.
I understand that
Conceptually.
But when I look at your face,
I see the person I knew,
A person who’s no longer
Entirely you.
And I can’t treat you
Like a stranger off the street,
Someone I’ve never met.
So how can I meet you
When I can’t forget?


A Toast to Cooks

Creative wizard
Of tastiness who creates
Ode-inspiring
Kitchen magic


Time

A forgotten sound
Now replaced by glowing lights
Moving silently


Books

My nemesis is my true love(s)
Who holds me in its sway
No matter how I fight
Or resist its call
Eventually, I obey.
